The Neighborhoods 2LP reissue celebrates Blink-182's sixth studio album, originally released in 2011. This reissue highlights the album's legacy as the band's first project after an eight-year hiatus and their first without longtime producer Jerry Finn, who passed away in 2008. It features standout tracks like "Ghost on the Dance Floor," "Up All Night," and "After Midnight," spread across two vinyl records.
The album reflects the individual influences of Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLonge, and Travis Barker, blending a darker, more experimental sound with the band's signature energy. The recording process was unconventional, with the band members often working in separate studios and collaborating remotely. This approach, though efficient given their schedules, resulted in an introspective and mature tone, marking a shift from their earlier, more lighthearted releases.
The Neighborhoods reissue revisits this pivotal moment in the band’s history, making it a must-have for fans. It debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 and was praised for its ambition and emotional depth.
